Time for a tire change but I'm debating right now. Both are great but which one is better? Anyone have the on yet? Between the Pirelli Rosso and Brigdestone BT016??????????

 

Rosso isnt as much of a performance tire. im not a Bridgestone fan but of the two that is the one to choose.

 

Rosso!

 

Both tires are fantastic...I've been running Pirelli's for about a year now and I will have a hard time trying something else but I hear the Bridgestone's are monsters at the track...never ran them personally but I've never heard a bad thing about their performance.

 

I've been running the BT016's since June and don't have any complaints. I've one track day on them and about 1500 miles of commuting. So far the center of the tire seems like it's holding up really well. The side of the tire soft as hell and grip really well. Took some time getting use to them since the profile was different from the Pirellis that came with the bike.

 

i just put pirelli diablos on mine....i love them, they say the rossos are even better

 

Just put bt-016s on my 600rr a couple weeks ago. They take a little longer to warm up than my PP's but once up to temp they grip alot better.

 

Rosso!!!

 

Loving my BT-016's so far. The edge is really nice and grippy. Bump absorbtion is really good too.

 

BT016 hands down
